Aperture Training Update

It’s pretty obvious that interest in Aperture is very high, despite some of the negative press. The first public training of Aperture at MacWorld has long been sold out. That two-day session is being led by Derrick Story. (See a press release about the show here.)

Derrick is a well-known and respected author, photographer and lecturer who focuses on digital photography, music, and Mac computing in his teaching and writing. You can keep up with his online articles, weblogs, and books at O’Reilly Media.

Derrick’s also a regular contributor to Macworld Magazine. You can listen to his photography podcasts and browse his daily tips and tricks at The Digital Story.

And I am proud to add that Derrick has asked me (your humble blogmaster Scott Bourne) to join him co-presenting at the MacWorld Aperture Power Tools conference. I will demo a few tricks and tips alongside Derrick.

While this training session is sold out, there will be others in the future so check back here often to find out what’s in the works. And if you see me wandering in the hallways of the Moscone Center, be sure to say hello!

UPDATE: Due to demand, IDG, the Macworld Expo show coordinators have changed the training session to a larger room so there may be seats available for the two-day training session. Go to MacworldExpo.com for more information.
